Reformational evolutionary biology


Kerry Hollinsworth in a recent post has pointed out some useful resources on reformational biology:

I thought it might be useful to some of the younger members who may not be aware of the work of J. J. Duyvene De Wit in the area of Evolutionary Biology to have some references to this outstanding scholar.

A New Critique of the Transformist Principle in Evolutionary Biology. J. H. Kok, 1965. (65pp)

The Impact of Herman Dooyeweerd's Christian Philosophy Upon Present Day Biological Thought. (pp. 405-433) in Philosophy and Christianity. J. H. Kok. 1965.

Organic Life and the Evolutionistic World and Life View, in, Christian Perspectives: The Unioniville Lectures, 1962 (pp 11-70)


J. J. Duyvene de Witt was born in the Netherlands in 1909, he was head of a pharmaceutical company befor taking a PhD at Utrecht in 1939. From 1951 he held the chair of zooology at the University of Bloemfontein, South Africa.
